Lately, I've been doing a lot of virtual wedding dress window shopping.
I haven't actually tried on any dresses yet, but these are a few of my favorites from my online search so far.
I'm waiting to go dress shopping in Houston later this month, so my mom and sister can be there with me. I think it will really hit me that I am going to be a bride, am getting married, once I see myself in a dress. I just hope it's not too hard to find THE dress.
I'm a little worried that there doesn't seem to be much in common among the ones I love. I'm drawn to a lot of different styles and I'm super indecisive. Some girls know exactly what they want, but I am still pretty open. I will probably be the dress shop's worst nightmare, because I like so many!
Randy's favorite is the one on the top left. And he's not a big fan of dresses with pockets! But I think they're cute. I also love the addition of colorful accessories, like those marigold heels and pretty chartreuse cardigan. Though I doubt I'll be needing a sweater in July!
What do you guys think? What wedding dress styles do you love? Which do you hate?
Married readers, how was your wedding dress search? Did you know right away when you found the one, or were you torn between several dresses you loved?
I got a few suggestions on Twitter [thanks @Julosh!] for where to shop in Houston, but I'd love to hear more if you know of any great boutiques in Houston or Tulsa!

I think it's totally normal to be drawn to a bunch of different styles when you're just searching online, but I think once you get in there and try the different styles you'll be able to narrow it down quickly!
My Mom is a fashion designer so she made my dress, so mine was a bit of a different process, but it is all so exciting!
CONGRATS! :)
thank you!
that's awesome that your mom made your dress. how lucky you are to have such a talented mama!! and I'm sure that made it feel extra special. :)
Just keep searching, you'll know the one when you try it on. :)
I'm also really digging the bright shoes and the ampersand - super cute!

Chelsea, maybe it's a designer thing, but I am such a sucker for those giant ampersands too. I'm trying to get Randy to make one for me. :)
Really? I see A LOT of similarities in the dresses you chose. First thing being the wide sash at the waist, a little lower than an empire ... full skirt is another similarity ... and the sweetheart neckline (with straps and without). Beautiful choices. Good luck on your search.
I guess maybe they do have more in common than I realized! :)
